As of a few days ago, I have come to a realization that I must face a certain life-changing decision.

Either I take a left turn, and be what people expect me to be, but not be free to do whatever I wish, or I take a right turn, and “head for daylight”, in which I can do everything i’d like to do and not follow any expectations.

If I take a left turn, I will continue what i’ve done up ’till now, being who i’m expected to be [in the present and in the future].

If I take a right turn, i’ll be free to do as I wish, but I may disappoint some people in my life and possible have our connection “broken”.

So to speak, if I take a left turn my true want of what i’d like to be will not “shine” due to lack of daylight, but if I take a right turn it will shine but may cause some people i’ve known to stay on the right side, as they may not be able to accept the/”survive” in daylight.

I know some of you will understand my crisis here, and some will not. If you do understand, please talk in “clues” as I did without uncovering any details.

(My avatar is partially in the dark, which expresses my current status: in the dark, but willing to step out of the darkness and head to daylight.)

So, while viewing YouTube I came to find a trailer of the finale of Avatar: The Last Airbender. As some of you may know, Avatar: The Last Airbender (Avatar: The Legend of Aang in some countries) is an animated anime-like show about Aang, the newest avatar, and his friends trying to save the world from the “fire nation”. Quoting from Wikipedia: (You can read the series’ premise by clicking on the tiny “1″ just after this text^»1 )

Avatar: The Last Airbender (also known as Avatar: The Legend of Aang in several countries) is a multi award-winning American animated television series that airs on the Nickelodeontelevision network and on Nicktoons Network. The show is set in an Asian-influenced world^[1] ofmartial arts and elemental manipulation; the series follows the adventures of Aang and his friends, who try to save the world from war with the Fire Nation.^[2] The show’s protagonist Aang is trapped in an iceberg when he is found by two members of the Southern Water Tribe, Kataraand Sokka.^[3] After being freed from the iceberg, Katara and Sokka join Aang on a long journey across the globe; their ultimate goal is to help Aang acquire the skills to defeat the Fire Lord, and end the war.^[4] In the series’ terminology, each episode is referred to as a “chapter”, and each season as a “book.”.

Avatar: The Last Airbender is popular with both audiences and critics,^[6] garnering 4.4 million viewers on its best-rated showing and receiving high ratings in the Nicktoons lineup, even outside its 6–11-year-old demographic.^[4][7] The series’ success prompted Nickelodeon to order second^[8] and third^[9] seasons.

So, as I was saying, I came upon the official trailer for episodes 12 through 21 of season 3, “Fire”. I had already watched episodes 12 through 15 on a website providing leaked episodes, so only 16 through 21 matter to me. The trailer is highly filled with action, interesting “clue” scenes (Like the one showing someone, known as “Azula”, throwing her hair brush on the mirror. It’s a “clue” because her mother is seen in the reflection, and she is known to either be dead or far gone), and surprising scenes. (One example is in about the middle of the episode, when a girl, known as “Katara”, stops the rain in place. She’s a waterbender, so she can control the flow of water, but up till now we (the fans) had no idea she can do something as big as that.) The finale will consist of 4 linked episodes, meaning it will be a 2-hour long movie. But, as much as i’d like to see it already, I don’t want the series to end. I hope they make one more “fun” season, just for the heck of it. Three seasons aren’t enough. When the DVD comes out and all three get to the nearest Blockbuster, i’ll rent ‘em season-by-season to rip them all to my PC. I want to have all 61 episodes on-hand after the series ends. (Then I could stream them from my PC to my PlayStation 3 and with its upscaling engine, I could watch it in full HD 1080p! )

So, without further waiting, here’s the trailer! I think you’ll find it to be more of a trailer like for real action movies, as I did.

P.S.: Did you notice the funny ending? It’s a joke made by the creators.

1. Avatar: The Last Airbender takes place in a fantasy world, home to humans, fantastic animals, and supernatural spirits. Human civilization is divided into four nations: the Water Tribes, theEarth Kingdom, the Air Nomads, and the Fire Nation. Each nation has its own natural element, on which it bases its society. The Water Tribes base their society on water, the Earth Kingdom on earth, the Air Nomads on air, and the Fire Nation on fire. Within each nation exists an order called “Benders”, who have the ability to manipulate the element of their nation. The show’s creators assigned each Bending art its own style of martial arts; each Bending art inherited the advantages and weaknesses of the martial arts it was assigned. The Bending types areWaterbending, Earthbending, Firebending, and Airbending.^[20]

   Each generation yields one person who is capable of Bending all four elements. This being is referred to as the Avatar, the spirit of the planet manifested in human form. When an Avatar dies, they are reincarnated into the next nation in the Avatar Cycle. The Avatar Cycle parallels the seasons: winter for The Water Tribes, spring for the Earth Kingdom, summer for the Fire Nation, and autumn for the Air Nomads.^[21] Legend holds the Avatar must master each bending art in order, starting with their native element. This can sometimes be compromised when the situation requires it, as Aang demonstrates in the show. For the Avatar, learning to bend the element opposite their native element can be extremely difficult. This is because opposing Bending arts are based on opposing fighting styles and disciplines. Firebending andWaterbending are opposites, as are Earthbending and Airbending.^[22]

   The Avatar possesses a unique power called the Avatar State. It empowers the Avatar with the knowledge and abilities of all past Avatars, and is used as a defense mechanism.^[23] When an Avatar enters the Avatar state, their eyes and tattoos begin to glow. If an Avatar is killed in the Avatar State, the reincarnation cycle will be broken, and the Avatar cycle will end.^[23]

   Through the ages, countless incarnations of Avatar have served to keep the four nations in harmony, and maintain world order.^[20] The Avatar serves as the bridge between the physical world and the Spirit World, allowing him or her to solve problems that normal benders cannot.^[24] [↩]
